Review - Expert Opinion on Antibiotics and Antibiotic Resistance in Dermatology.
Review in Dermatology practical & conceptual, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionAntibiotic resistance has become a serious, severe problem worldwide. This issue does not only relate to the use of systemic antibiotics but to topical ones as well, like systemic therapies and local treatment of skin and mucosal infections. Antiseptics, an alternative to the topical treatment with antibiotics of wounds and some inflammatory dermatological conditions, tend to be microbicidal and have a broader spectrum of antimicrobial activity than antibiotics. Among these, polyhexanide (PHMB) allows for the control of the infection while avoiding the development of resistance.
objectivesRecommendations on the rules of good clinical practice for the management of small wounds, burns and post-traumatic ulcerative wounds, impetigo or folliculitis in the initial stages, and acne.
methodsLiterature review on the principal topical therapies for small wounds, injuries, impetigo, folliculitis, and acne and a proposal of innovative, highly-tolerated treatments. RESULTS AND
conclusionsGiven the abuse of topical antibiotics in dermatology, for the treatment of small wounds, injuries, localized folliculitis, impetigo, and acne, the use of alternative topical treatments like polyhexanide and Rigenase® is recommended.
